Program

A neurotechnology training week in a mountain environment is organized as part of the Grenoble-Neurotech initiative, which aims to develop neurotechnologies that enable paralyzed people to compensate for their disability, by combining new implantable neural interface solutions with methods and tools for real-time processing and decoding of neural signals. This research is accompanied by a reflection on the ethical and societal implications of these developments.

With its multidisciplinary approach and international speakers, the Grenoble Neurotech School 2026 offers master’s students, doctoral students, researchers and engineers the opportunity to enrich and develop their knowledge in multidisciplinary fields aroundneurotechonologies through courses, conferences and practical work. And also to exchange and share with others through workshops and outdoor activities.
